  • Title: Ascending aorta-abdominal aorta bypass for Takayasu's arteritis.
    Author: Ahn H, Hwang HY.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2003 Dec; 11(4):357-8. PubMed ID: 14681103.
    Abstract:
    Three patients with type III Takayasu's arteritis were referred to us because of the upper extremity hypertension and vascular claudication of the lower extremities. They underwent extra-anatomic ascending aorta-abdominal aorta bypass with vascular graft under a median sternotomy and a splitted midline laparotomy incision without cardiopulmonary bypass. The postoperative course was uneventful. Upper extremity hypertension and vascular claudication were completely resolved.
